Verify
Server for NIS push service functionality can be verified by pushing maps to subordinate servers.
To test the functionality of the push service, change a map entry for an NIS user (you can use the users nisadmin or AdminUI for the purposes of your test). Wait for the refresh interval to elapse, and then view the NIS map stored on a UNIX-based subordinate of the master server. If your changed values are reflected in the NIS map stored on the UNIX-based NIS subordinate server, then the Server for NIS master server is functioning as expected.
In the absence of any of the following error messages, the push service is functioning normally. If any of these messages occur, the push service can continue working, but warning conditions exist.
